    It’s rare that I find a website that breaks with safari, but when I do, chrome inevitably works.

      I've been pretty happy with Edge and DuckDuckGo. Chrome is a big hog.

        If you'd told me in 1994 that Netscape would be non-existent so soon, I'd have laughed at you.

        I knew someone around the year 2004 who worked for AOL (who I think owned Netscape at the time?). Anyway, they were asking me about an ad campaign to use Netscape and I was like "ummm, no one uses netscape anymore".

              In the early days of OS X, I used OmniWeb. It was developed by a team that used to develop software for NeXTSTEP.

                  I used it - for about a week. Mosaic was revolutionary.

                    I used Lynx too, on VAX VMS, Sun Solaris, NetBSD, and Linux.

                      That is interesting, I have never used Chrome. Right now, Safari with Duck Duck Go as the search engine.

                      Maybe I will try Duck Duck Go as the browser.

                        I don't think there's a desktop version - yet.

                          Remember Cyberdog?

                          I used it.

                            I do as my moderator told me to do.

                            I use Brave for everything.
